Aruba, Jamaica or whatever that ass-nasty Beach Boys shyt was called.
I tore my eyes out when I heard it the 7,000th time.

Oh puke, I forgot about that one. That song was horrid.

Kokomo.
I should kill you for just saying that. ;)

Time to poke the bear :D

Kokomo
:music:
Aruba, jamaica ooo I wanna take you
Bermuda, bahama come on pretty mama
Key largo, montego baby why don?t we go
Jamaica

Off the florida keys
There?s a place called kokomo
That?s where you wanna go to get away from it all

Bodies in the sand
Tropical drink melting in your hand
We?ll be falling in love
To the rhythm of a steel drum band
Down in kokomo
:music:

D-I-E

kthnx :)

"My heart will go on" was very overplayed when Titanic came out. "Oh What a Night" gets a lot of play too....

This song and the "Hollaback Girl" song in my mind tie for the most annoying songs of all time.

Hollaback Girl ranks on my top ten worst songs of all time list. :thumbsdown:

Hey Ya isn't that bad, just overplayed.

heh. have you heard the spoof of "Arms Wide Open" called "My Mouth's Not Open"? heheh. funny because in that song it sounds as if he is singing with his mouth barely open.

:music: my mouth's not open... it's barely open :music:

Green Day songs. I got over the craze a few months after American Idiot came out. I concluded which songs were good and finally they play them on the radio... except now nonstop. Gee did it take people that long to realize which songs were good?

It's called promotion. You don't release 5 singles from one album at once, you release them one at a time so they each get max play on the radio....

Gee do you think the radio just plays all the good songs from a recent album at once?
